The Trust Episode 29 Recap
> The Trust Recap
Xiao Jinyun had to make concessions for the Xu family, but Xu Yu was upset about the grievances of her father and brother. She had promised herself not to let the Xu family become a pawn for balancing the court, but now she broke that promise. Xu Yu could not forgive herself for her mistake and for not being able to uphold justice for the Xu family.
Mudan provided false testimony and framed the Xu family, which led to their imprisonment. Xiao Jinming came to the prison with a fierce demeanor to question her motives. Xu Yu was curious about why she did this and could not forgive herself for not being able to do anything to help the Xu family. Mudan refused to give a reason, saying that she will make a final cup of tea for Xiao Jinming when she has no chance in the future.
The reason why Peony is like this is because her father, the former Ministry of Rites, was accused of treason when he went to the northern border, but in fact, her father endured humiliation to intercept military information. Xu's father unjustly killed him, so Peony became like this. Xiao Jinle said it was a misunderstanding, but for Peony, it was a hatred of exterminating her family, not just a light misunderstanding. Peony worked hard and never regretted it, except for one thing: she fell in love with Xiao Jinle and hoped to win his favor, maybe then she could let go of everything. Xiao Jinle rejected her, and the most useless thing in the world is fantasy.
It was not yet winter, but the snow was falling heavily. Xiao Jinyun was feeling troubled, so he asked Xiao Jinming to go to court in his place, hoping to find a weakness in Duke Hengshan's defense. Xu Yu was sitting in the yard, feeling gloomy and holding the doll that Xiao Jinyun had given her. She was worried about Xu Dage and the Xu family. Bao Dao and Bao Jian were by her side, ready to protect her even if Fengyi Palace would face difficult times in the future. On the day Xu Dage was exiled, his father came to see him off and wished him a safe journey ahead. Duke Hengshan mocked Xu's father, but Xiao Jinyun saw through him and realized that everyone was just a pawn in his game. He should have seen this earlier and found a way out. Xu's father did not respond, and Duke Hengshan decided to give him another push.
Xu Yu avoided seeing Xiao Jinyun, so Xiao Jinyun came to the window and said he was very worried and would come to visit her again tomorrow. Pei Xinzhu prepared a set of clothes for Xu Yu, thinking that he was Xiao Jinyun. Concubine Tao went to see Duke Hengshan and told him that Xiao Jinyun and Xu Yu had become estranged because of the Xu family's affairs, but Xiao Jinyun still had some residual poison in his body, so he had not yet favored her. Duke Hengshan was very pleased and quickly sent someone to assassinate Xu Big Brother.
Xu Yu suddenly felt a panic when Pei Xinzhu and Concubine Tao arrived, holding clothes they had personally sewn for her. Xu Yu was moved and asked them to stay for dinner. After three rounds of drinks, all three of them were drunk. Pei Xinzhu quietly told Xu Yu that she knew she had switched bodies with Xiao Jinyun, but she couldn't bring herself to hate Xu Yu anymore. Xu Yu told her that she was the real Xu Yu and they had already switched back. Pei Xinzhu burst into tears, moved that Xu Yu didn't hold her difficulties against her. Concubine Tao was also touched to see the two reconciling, and Ping Er joined in on the fun, bringing joy back to the courtyard.
Xu Yu dreamed that her elder brother Xu was assassinated, and at the same time, Xu's father received the news that Xu had really died. Xu's father spat out a mouthful of blood from his throat and almost couldn't support himself. Is the heart of a loyal minister really as cheap as grass and mustard? Xiao Jinyun brought Xu Yu back to Xu's home, and Xu's father looked at Xu's armor in a daze. Hearing the news of Xu's elder brother's passing, Xu Yu was full of sadness and disbelief, but at this time, Xu's elder brother's body was brought back. Xu Yu couldn't hold back her tears anymore and cried until her voice became hoarse. She no longer had her elder brother. Xu Yu refused to let Xiao Jinyun approach her, and Xu's father also asked him to leave. So much had happened during these days, Xu Yu decided to stay and accompany Xu's father more, ignoring Xiao Jinyun.
